I stumbled upon them. They made me happy and hopeful :)
The Oh Hellos' first full-length album, "Through the Deep, Dark Valley," is a self-contained concept album, and so for best results should be listened to in its entirety, in chronological order, in one sitting.

Raising Aali
It has been one whole year with our daughter Aaliyah. I'm sure her blood parents would cringe if they heard us call her our daughter, and we hope for her sake that they will continue to love from afar.
She has been an absolute joy in our lives, a blessing, an education, a comfort, a happiness we never knew we could experience before she came along.
She's challenged us, and pushed our buttons, and tired us out, and driven us crazy... But somehow at the end of everyday when she snuggles in our arms, it wipes the slate clean. We wake up the next morning to a new day, and our hearts swell with the joy she brings us.
I have never done anything in my life that gives me more purpose than raising Aali.
